    And more than half of the country supports him overall, as evidenced by the popular vote. Exciting times coming!

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 5, Matches 79-84

    Pffft, don’t try to act like Stranglehold isn’t one of the best classic rock songs ever. But yeah, I’ve never been big on Cat Scratch Fever, either.

    I used to think Musk was a Bond villain, but now it’s clear that he’s more like Q, creating the technology for Team Trump to be more efficient. Can’t wait for him and Vivek to trim the fat with DOGE. 15 more days!

    As someone who has graduated from three colleges, I couldn’t agree more. Far leftism is taught almost as if it’s fact, and any attitudes or opinions to the contrary are shunned. I got my bachelors from a Catholic university in 2010, and even there, leftism lurked. I had one professor tell all...

    Ok, this was legitimately funny.

    Not as much as I needed one. Thanks! Anyway, this was lawfare. Doesn’t it say something that despite all of this, Trump was still elected? The majority of Americans do not trust mainstream media anymore because it is clearly biased.

    Their voices work so well together. I’ve gained a much greater appreciation for Porcupine Tree and Wilson’s solo stuff mostly because of Opeth.

    Official MLB baseball thread.

    Sad to hear. Only 65, too; I guess it was pneumonia. Too young. Never knew he was a Chicago native, either. He played for a lot of teams… 25 seasons! That’s unheard of today.

    Ghost Reveries is beloved by almost all Opeth fans, and it's not difficult to understand why. The album is chock full of meaty riffs, slithering progressive sections, sinister growls, and heartfelt clean pieces. It has two of Opeth's best tracks and a bunch of other really good stuff. 8...

    I believe he wrote the song about his grandmother’s death. I love the live version where it ends with an ass-kicking Fredrik solo.

    OPETH DISCOGRAPHY RANKING GAME - Still Life wins!

    As you can see from @Mosh post, I ranked Damnation at number one. I adore this album. It gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside, which isn’t something normally associated with Opeth, but I don’t care. It also gives me a cold, isolated feeling inside, which us Opeth fans crave. There’s just...

    OPETH DISCOGRAPHY RANKING GAME - Still Life wins!

    While Deliverance is mostly overshadowed by its mellower and stronger sister album, it is a solid record in its own right. It contains only one song that I'm not a big fan of, while the others fit right into the classic Still Life/Blackwater Park sound. My rankings: 5. Wreath. No surprise here...

    Bruce Dickinson Solovivor 2024 - "BOOK OF THEL" WINS!

    Agreed. I would’ve preferred Trumpets of Jericho or even Gates of Urizen in the top 10.

    I’ve been very excited for this game, but I’m going to wait a bit until the bugs are patched. I give the developers a ton of credit for making a game of this scope during an actual war, though; I heard that none of the buildings were procedurally generated. Pumped to play it!

    Opeth

    It’s the Opeth musical none of us knew we needed. Right now §6 is my jam; the solo section is straight out of a Symphony X song. This is one of the most progressive albums I’ve ever heard. My only complaint is that I wish it was 10 minutes longer, as the songs are so jam-packed with content and...

    Best album since Ghost Reveries in my book.

    Got Star Wars Outlaws on sale after waiting a few months due to all the reported bugs. Having fun with it so far; I really like that it’s a “scoundrel” type of game without lightsabers as I’ve wanted a SW game like that for a while. I’m still on the first open world planet but I can’t wait to...

    I’ve always seen Watershed as a bit of a polarizing album, as it began the period of random out-of-place interludes being strewn about each song like they were going out of style. Nothing on this album sucks, but very little of contains the best Opeth has to offer. From worst to best: 7...
